Dan:

For the record.....I posted this NOT to have anyone divided. I posted it for the OPPOSITE reason. It seems SO MANY people want to look down their noses at people who bait deer.......but will give a pass to people who bait bear and other animals (mainly because they, themselves, likely have done so).

Baiting is allowed for a MYRIAD of reasons.

MY OPINION>>.........but if you're not hunting BIG woods.....with no agricultural fields......you're hunting over bait. There's nothing "natural" about a crop of corn....or a field of soy beans. I didn't say I had aproblem in the world with it....I don't.....I just think it's time for everyone to look at this in a different light.

THAT is why I posted my Big Woods" thread the other day.....to find out if anyone was REALLY hunting big woods...with no agricultural fields. I was VERY surprised to find that some are.

Respect.

I don't disrespect the people who bait AT ALL. Let me make that clear, also. This thread was started to make people think.....not divide them. I'm sorry that was a pseudo-side effect.
